EV — EVIDENCE
Definition: Empirical data that supports (but does not prove) the axioms.
Epistemological Role
- Supporting: Increases confidence, doesn’t establish certainty
- Empirical: Comes from observation/experiment
- Probabilistic: Affects likelihood, not truth value
Test for Evidence Status
“Is this empirical data supporting a claim?”
- If YES → Evidence
- If it’s a controlled experiment → EXP (Experiment)
- If it’s a theoretical result → Theorem

Evidence vs Proof
These items are evidence, not proof:
| Evidence | Supports | Does NOT prove |
|---|---|---|
| GCP data | Φ affects physical systems | That Φ = consciousness |
| PEAR results | Observer effects exist | Theophysics interpretation |
| 5.7 sigma | Correlation is real | Causation mechanism |
| Prophecy | Pattern exists | Divine origin |
The theory predicts this evidence — but the evidence is also consistent with other theories.
Evidence increases confidence. Only proof establishes certainty.
